Influence of glass fibers on mechanical and durability performance of concrete with recycled aggregates
Babar Ali,Liaqat Ali Qureshi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of glass fiber reinforcement on mechanical and durability performance of concrete made with recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) was investigated, and the results showed that 50% RCA concrete outperforms the plain natural coarse aggregate concrete at 0.5% GF in overall mechanical performance (compressive, split tensile and flexural strength).

Durability and strength characteristics of high-strength concrete incorporated with volcanic pumice powder and polypropylene fibers
TL;DR: In this article, the partial replacement of volcanic pumice powder (VPP) for use as a supplementary cementitious material was investigated for use in high-strength concrete mixtures, and several tests, including slump, compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, flexural strength, water absorption, initial surface absorption and sorptivity, were conducted to evaluate HSC performance.
